Ahhh! Thank you very much!

So Units without the Phalanx would perform as regular spearmen...with the weapon as per the unit's .CAS model.

Units with Phalanx and Pike, will use the "weapon_hoplite_pike.cas" in models folder...which also has its own animation...(opening that model and comparing, we see clearly that it is a Pike, longer spear)...is his correct?

But, what hapens if a Unit does not use a Pike, but has Phalanx capability...will it use its default Spear as per the Unit's .CAS model?

And if that is the case, then, what accounts for the special animation?

Or, is there yet a third Weapon model somewhere for regular phalanx spears?

Because, there is still one factor unnacounted here, what makes the Phalanx Spear Shorter than the Phalanx Pike (now that we know the Pikes are their own Models with own animation)?
